Really glad that Misstamchiak was around and came by to offer us suggestions and tips on how to take a better food photo! It really enlightened me (as the appointed camera person for the team) and I hopefully absorbed some tips from her to come out with our best shot!

SO ARE YOU READY TO SEE OUR FINAL PRODUCT?

NOT TOO BAD RIGHT!

(You're not allowed to say no.)

So yeah, it didn't turn out as ideal as we easily thought it would. But it didn't turn out that bad either!

And now, the nerve wrecking part - where we get judged!

Chef takes a look at our pancake's outlook, cuts open our pancakes to see if it's cooked..

And.............turnedoutthatitwasntcookedafterall.

HAHA.

But we scored like a 6/10 from her!

Which was pretty rewarding taking into consideration it was the first time for all 3 of us.

And here is our process/after thoughts on it!

P.S. These are just my personal views & habits on food photography, I ain't no pro in it!

I personally fancy 16:9 ratio photos A LOT.

It just seem more HD, somehow.

The basic golden rule of photography!

Somehow things always seem nicer at a corner! Hahaha!

Lighting plays a MAJOR factor in a good photo.

I personally prefer natural sunlit photos or under a gentle warm lighting.

I love details a lot.

So whenever I take pictures, I'd love to take close ups with micro details of the food, blurring out the others in the background.

Yes, I do edit my photos, ALL my photos in fact.

The reason of editing isn't to alter the things in there, but to enhance the colors.

A camera is after all a camera (plus not everyone uses a DSLR).

The camera doesn't capture the right color/texture of the food sometimes and it'll do major injustice to it!

Which is why I always insist on editing all my photos.

Sometimes when everybody posts pictures of food with too many deco beside it,
